dear all, this thread is to share all the latest information about Salalah trip. Especially while driving on road. Also for the drivers who drove last year, their input will be appreciated. The visa should be obtained in advanced? Or can be issued on the border ? So if you are sharing information, please make sure it is up to date. ( not last year info ). [/quote]
[quote=yassser;42818]Here some tips from my previous wonderful trip:
Almost 1300 km the crossed distance (one way )
Almost 15 hours driving
4-5 stops ( including fuel stations)
Omani sim card is available on the road ...no need for roaming service
Car should be in very good condition
Cream anti bits mosquitoes is Must ( good quality)
Radio charger is Must
Umbrella is necessary but we didn't have to use it last year
Of course marshals have alot to be said
Cheers[/quote]

[quote=Muhittin;42871]I think that our cars insurance should covers Oman. But what about the visa? Shall we obtain the visa on the border? Or in advanced from the consulate in Dubai?[/quote]
[quote=elena;42872]most of the insurances cover Oman, but check with yours. when i went for car registration renewal i pointed especially at Oman coverage, so my insurance covers.
as per visa, i think we all should inquire that from Omani consulate, as we all have different passports and different types of UAE visa. so this point as well better to be checked individually.[/quote]
Sorry but I had to bring all your comments in here so everyone can benefit from the conversation without getting lost :grin: Thanks @Muhittin
